Chapter 95 - I Thank You On Behalf Of The VIP Users

The assistant director had been watching the audience’s reaction. This year, they were experimenting with livestreaming their filming process, then editing the footage into a full-fledged episode.

This way, they could drum up lots of hype for the episode itself as well as determine which parts were the most popular with the audience so that they could maximize the effect when editing the footage.

After having used this method for the past three episodes, they’d found that it was indeed quite feasible. Not only that, because they couldn’t show everyone’s point of view at once on a livestream, they could edit in some scenes that were previously unseen by the audience, which would help stir up even more anticipation.

For example, when the cameras were focused on Yu Mingshu’s side of things, the audience would not be able to see what Jiang Xun was up to even though the cameras on her were still filming. When editing the film, they would be able to add in some footage from Jiang Xun’s side of things while also showing Yu Mingshu’s point of view.

The main episode would be broadcast on the same day and the next night, so they were not afraid that the content would be leaked in advance.

Even if they didn’t live stream it, news about their episode would be flying all over the place anyway, so they might as well livestream it themselves. It would also help bring in a lot of traffic to their show.

After all, a small number of viewers had the time to watch the livestream, and most of the audience only had time to watch the main episode.

After the main episode was officially broadcasted, the program team would set the livestream back to VIP exclusive content and put it on the Kefeng video platform.

Hou Guanglin, who’d proposed this new broadcast method, was so cunning that the entire program team had to praise him.

“Director, aren’t we going to cut to Jiang Xun’s side?” The assistant director saw that the audience’s reaction was too enthusiastic and felt that it was a pity to cut away from them. “The audience wants to see the situation on Jiang Xun and Mufeng’s side. Mingshu’s side really doesn’t have any interesting content.”

“Haven’t we shown the audience enough?” There was a sly expression on Guanglin’s face. “If they still want to watch more, then let them wait for the main episode.”

After all, if they showed everything interesting in the livestream, then who would want to watch the main episode?

“When we go back, tell the editor not to stuff all the interesting content into the main episode at once,” Guanglin instructed, “Add more into the VIP Plus exclusive content. Since it’s already loaded with VIP users, we have to show the difference between a VIP and an ordinary user, right? We have to let our distinguished VIP users feel that their money hasn’t been wasted.”

“…I thank you on behalf of the VIP users,” the assistant director said after hearing Guanglin’s instructions. “If Kefeng doesn’t increase your bonus this year, I’ll be the first to disagree with them.”

How could there be a director who could make money for the platform so easily?

By the way, Guanglin was the chief director of the variety show’s second production team in the production department of Kefeng’s variety shows.

Guanglin smiled and waved his hand. “Hey! Let’s strive to get our production team to be number one this year!”

After saying that, his attention returned to the camera.

Mingshu had just happened to meet up with Kangwang.

“Teacher Zhang, have you found any clues?” Mingshu and Kangwang hid in the bushes.

“I was just about to go when I ran into you,” Kangwang said. “I just saw Jiang Xun attracting all the men in black away. All the men in black are chasing after her, so we’re safe now.”

“Are they all chasing after Jiang Xun?” Mingshu was not worried at all. In fact, she was even a little happy. “No wonder I didn’t meet any men in black along the way. To think that I was so careful when hiding and didn’t dare to come out.”

“Teacher Zhang, since Jiang Xun’s attracted all the men in black, why don’t we hurry to the clothing store to look for clues?” Mingshu said.

“I think so too.” Kangwang peeked out of the bushes to observe his surroundings. He didn’t see the men in black, so he followed Mingshu out.

However, just as the two of them reached the main road, they suddenly heard a lot of chaotic running sounds.

They turned around and saw the men in black!

The men in black also happened to see them. With a cold and ruthless expression, they ran toward them.

They wanted to get back what they had lost to Jiang Xun!

They had been men in black for so many periods, but they had only lost to Jiang Xun. It was too shameful for them.

They had to prove that they could do their jobs properly!

At this moment, an announcement came.

“The second batch of black-shirted men will be released in 30 seconds,” the announcer said. Every corner of Minguo City could hear it clearly. “Countdown begins now.”

“Run!” Kangwang shouted at Mingshu and ran away.

While running, Mingshu asked, “Didn’t they say that the black-shirted men are all chasing Jiang Xun?”

“I don’t know either. I clearly saw it just now,” Kangwang said breathlessly. “Let’s split up and separate them. This way, we can still reduce the pressure!”

“Okay!” Mingshu agreed.

Kangwang immediately turned left, but the turn was a little too big.

He heard a crack come from his waist.

“Argh!” Kangwang clutched his waist in pain. “My waist!”

This time, he really couldn’t run anymore. He didn’t dare to move too much now; every time he moved, his waist would hurt.

The men in black ran over and touched Kangwang lightly.

“Zhang Kangwang, eliminated!” the announcement rang out.

Then, Director Jing contacted the medical staff to deal with Kangwang.

As the medical staff treated Kangwang, he regretted his decision earlier. “I should have warmed up with Jiang Xun. Maybe then I could’ve held on for a while longer before being eliminated.”

[ Merit Points + 1]

Jiang Xun’s head snapped up in confusion. Where did the Merit Points come from?

At this moment, she and Mufeng received a message on their phones. It was only then did they know that Kangwang had injured his waist.

“This is the result of not warming up,” Jiang Xun turned to the camera and said.

[Stop talking. Teacher Zhang is regretting it.]

[We have to properly warm up in the future.]

In the meantime, Mingshu couldn’t be bothered to look at Kangwang’s condition. She screamed as she ran forward.

She wasn’t as fast as the man in black to begin with, so her scream slowed him down a little.

As she ran, however, Mingshu suddenly felt a throbbing pain in her leg.

She screamed as she fell to the ground, crying as she hugged her calf. “It hurts, it hurts so much! Aaaaahhhhh!”

The men in black ran over and gently touched her.

The broadcast: “Yu Mingshu, eliminated!”

The doctor who had just treated Kangwang rushed over to treat Mingshu. “It’s okay, it’s just a cramp in your leg. You have to properly warm up in the future.”

“Did you see that? When Jiang Jiang was doing a warm up, she was still treating it like a joke! But now, it’s her leg that’s cramping.”

Jiang Xun and Mufeng then received another message. They learned that Mingshu’s leg had cramped up and was caught by the man in black.

Just now, when Kangwang had injured his waist, she had received 1 Merit Point, but now that Yu Mingshu had also been injured, there was nothing.

Jang Xun clicked her tongue. The difference between those two people was really huge. Some people couldn’t realize their mistakes even after things had already happened.

“We should also set off. We can’t just keep staying here,” she said to Mufeng.
